Listen "707: Why Winning Teams Think Differently"
Episode Synopsis
What separates good teams from great ones? It's not just talent or IQ—it's the culture they create together. In this episode of The High Performance Mindset Podcast, Dr. Cindra Kamphoff shares the mental strategies and research that reveal why the best teams think differently. You'll discover why positivity and psychological safety are essential for high performance and how you can lead yourself and others with a stronger, more confident mindset. Dr. Cindra unpacks Google's Project Aristotle and Barbara Fredrickson's research on the Positivity Ratio, showing that positivity isn't just a feel-good idea—it's a practice that fuels resilience, grit, and innovation. High-performing teams and individuals intentionally build trust, recognize effort, and focus more on what's going right than what's going wrong. That's what it means to be mentally strong. What You'll Learn in This Episode: In this episode, you'll learn why your mindset and words directly shape your team's performance and how the science of positivity fuels resilience, grit, and innovation. Cindra will walk you through strategies to master your thoughts so you can create the conditions for confidence, along with a practical tool—the "five-to-one rule"—to transform your culture and relationships. You'll also leave with a Power Phrase to help you own the moment and lead with positivity. This Week's Power Phrase: "I build my confidence and my team's success by choosing positivity."
